Chapter 58: The Sphinx

Nowadays, there are very few people in the human race who still study those ancient human characters, even if there are some old scholars who have collected some ancient characters sporadically, but they have not achieved much research results, and they are not systematic and cannot be promoted.

With the passage of the world, today's scholars hardly know that there are ancient characters. And the text on the animal skin in Ye Qing's hand is obviously not the current font, so it is normal for Ye Qing not to know it.

However, as long as Ye Qing is given a certain amount of time, he can still understand the content of the text, after all, the "Qinglian Notes" in his hand is similar to an encyclopedia, and there are still some records of these ancient texts.

Just after Ye Qing even put away the box together, the entire tunnel space shook.

There was a loud bang, and the deafening sound seemed to burst, and the entire space was shaken, and the earth trembled uncontrollably.

"What's the situation?" Sensing that something was wrong, Ye Qing immediately became alert, and the entire low space shook, such a violent vibration, I am afraid that this ancient battlefield can feel it.

Ye Qing carefully observed the changes around him, only to see a burst of stone chips falling, and the two lifelike sphinx statues on this platform really came to life, two pairs of fierce and violent eyes, staring at Ye Qing!

This statue has really come to life!

But when I came in, I obviously felt that it had no breath of life, and whether it had the ability to fluctuate, it was not like a puppet.

However, regardless of Ye Qing's inner complaints, the sphinx on those two statues was really completely alive!

This completely alive statue is very majestic, completely free of the previous rigidity and sluggishness, has its own majestic atmosphere, it is about three meters high, the body is a lying lion lying on his stomach, and the mane of the male lion, the head is a man's head, very handsome.

On the other statue, on the contrary, the head of a beautiful woman is carved, and both human heads are wearing crowns, all of them are golden, and their faces are serious.

They came back to life from the stone statues!

"Intruder...... It's been tens of thousands of years, and another creature has broken in. The sphinx monster with a head of a man made a majestic sound, although Ye Qing didn't understand this language, but it was strange that Ye Qing actually understood its meaning.

After saying a word, the sphinx let out a loud roar, as if to vent its loneliness and dissatisfaction for tens of thousands of years, the lion's roar formed a violent impact sound wave, Ye Qing only felt that his body was almost hit by electricity, and couldn't help but snort softly.

If it weren't for the fact that Ye Qing's body had been strengthened and reached the limit of the Hou Rank, I am afraid that he would have been injured.

"Is this the legendary monster that guards the treasure? But don't be so strong, this monster has already surpassed the momentum of the university, if you really start to do it, I don't know how strong it is, isn't it just a little pen, ink, paper and inkstone, can you use such a strong guard?"

Ye Qing finally understood why the two sphinxes, one male and one female, suddenly came back to life from the statues, it seemed that these two monsters were guarding the treasures in this box.

This is supposed to be a very special mechanism or formation, in normal times, these two monsters are asleep, but once an intruder touches the mechanism, the two sphinxes will wake up on their own.

Ye Qing took the box and the treasure, it should be a trigger device here, whoever moves it will trigger the mechanism here, so that the guardian of this place will also wake up.

Two sphinxes approached and let out a lion roar. All the rubble on their bodies fell off, and they rushed directly towards Ye Qing!

Seeing the two sphinx-faced monsters rushing over, Ye Qing didn't think about it, the spirit book in his hand flashed, and a flame knife slashed over, sweeping fiercely on the male sphinx!

Snort. As a loud bang sounded, the metallic sound that pierced the eardrum made Ye Qing frown, only to see that the sphinx monster had no scars left on its body at all. There was only a trace of white scratches, which did not affect the Sphinx's movement in the slightest.

The Sphinx continues to rush as if it was unhindered!

Dangerous!

The appearance of this monster turned out to be made of jade essence gold, and the defense of the jade alone was not something that anyone could open up, not to mention the essence of the jade essence extracted from the jade.

"Book Domain Guard!" Ye Qing hurriedly released a book domain, temporarily adding a defense to himself, and at the same time holding the spear in his forehead hand, ready to attack at any time.

After running for a distance, the sphinx-faced monster actually jumped directly towards Ye Qing is and stretched out its sharp lion claws.

A claw was directly imprinted on Ye Qing's book.

Who would have thought that the book domain, which had always been very strong in defense, would actually have a violent vibration under the lion's claw, and then it shattered like an eggshell, and the lion's claw continued to grab towards Ye Qing as if there was no obstacle.

Fortunately, Ye Qing was already in a state of attack at any time at this time, and when he saw the feeling of not being able to defend against the sphinx, he decisively chose to dodge, leaving the range of the lion's claw in an instant, and dodging the first wave of attacks of the sphinx monster.

Although he avoided the attack of the sphinx, Ye Qing's face was not very good-looking.

It's a big trouble now, who knew that these two monsters were so terrifying, and any blow was the strength of the emperor-level fierce beast. Coupled with its perverted defensive power, I'm afraid that even if Ye Qing blows with all his strength, he won't be able to hurt it in the slightest.

Monsters of such strength are not comparable to Ye Qing now, let alone fighting against them, even if they can escape under their hands, it is still a big problem.

What scared Ye Qing the most was that he knew that these two monsters had been sealed for too long, and it would definitely take a certain amount of time to get used to them and bring their strength to the peak. After all, it has been sealed for tens of thousands of years......

The only good news is that this sphinx monster doesn't seem to have a long-range attack method, and due to the limitations of space and size, their movement speed is not very fast, so Ye Qing can still maneuver with them with his flexible body now.

But this is useless, Ye Qing's attack can't really hurt everything, just by virtue of speed, Ye Qing will be attacked sooner or later.

Although Ye Qing's defense power can also be called a pervert, but that is only for the same level, in the face of the strong attack of the Sphinx, as long as he is next to each other, Ye Qing will basically be seriously injured, and he may even be directly shot into meat sauce.

For Ye Qing at this stage, these two monsters have almost immortal bodies, and it is absolutely impossible to kill them, so they can only escape!

But these two monsters are not stupid, they even know the principle of division of labor and cooperation, outflanking left and right, one left and one right, blocking the path of Ye Qing's movement respectively.

"No, if it goes on like this, sooner or later I will be exhausted, and I don't even need to use the strength of the Great Dao, as long as my speed slows down, it is very likely that I will die here!" Ye Qing secretly thought in his heart.

These two sphinxes are very powerful, the attack is terrifying, the most difficult thing is that they are almost impossible to kill, in this short moment, Ye Qing has dodged seven or eight of their attacks in a row, although they all rely on this flexible skill to dodge, but this is not a long-term solution after all.

It's better to keep it for a long time!

Ye Qing knew that now was not the time to hesitate, so he immediately made a decision, took out the spirit book and attacked the two monsters indiscriminately.

"Water polo!"

"Tornado!"

"Flame Knife!"

As long as Ye Qing was able to launch an attack in an instant, it released several.

But that's not enough!

These attacks can be said to be unable to even block the two monsters a little, Ye Qing did this just to confuse the public, disrupt the attack of the Sphinx, and find the best time and position for himself to escape.

"Thunder and thunder!"

Just as Ye Qing finally moved to the entrance of the passage that was close to entering here, Ye Qing sent out the most powerful attack in front of him, Ye Qing was the only thunder attribute attack he had mastered so far.

Countless thunderbolts and thunder roared incessantly, filling the entire space like a wild beast galloping.

With Ye Qing's order, countless thunderbolts suddenly shot down, and the entire space was filled with crackling thunder and lightning sounds, and the lightning was unimaginably fast, enveloping the bodies of the two sphinxes in an instant.

But relying on their strong bodies, the two monsters did not take Ye Qing's attack to heart, but instead rushed thousands of thunderbolts to this thunderbolt, and did not shy away from it.

It was like the apocalyptic scene of a volcanic eruption with a thunderbolt passing through the sky, and the entire small space was immediately in chaos, with rocks flying everywhere.

Even the two sphinx-faced monsters with strong defenses, although they were not really harmed by Ye Qing's thunderbolt, were also seriously hindered by the thunder and lightning, and were stunned for a few seconds.

In just a few seconds, it became Ye Qing's most critical escape time.

Ye Qing, who was already close to the entrance of the passage, rushed into the passage without looking back at the moment of the thunder and lightning attack, and ran outside as fast as he could, wishing to lose two legs.

By the time the two sphinx monsters reacted, Ye Qing had already seized the opportunity to escape several hundred meters away.

Moreover, as mentioned earlier, this passage is actually not big, especially at the entrance, which can only be passed by one person, and I don't know if it was built specifically for the human race.

So these two monsters wanted to pursue Ye Qing, but they couldn't do it, because they couldn't pass through the passage at all, so they had to let out a roar of anger that they didn't dare to vent the depression in their hearts.
